About Firm Transitions

Firm Transitions was formed in 2011 as a legal recruiting company. In late 2012, we began providing a broad range of consulting services for law firms, ranging from assistance to small law firms on formation and back-office operations to guidance for larger firms in strategic planning, knowledge management, and branding.

Mission of Firm Transitions

Provide attorneys, law firms and legal departments the tools necessary to embrace transformative changes and achieve success in the 21st Century.

Management Team

The concept for Firm Transitions was developed in 2008 when our Founder, Chris Vaughan, told his father, Keith Vaughan, that they should start a law firm consulting company after Chris finished his MBA and Keith retired from practicing law. In 2011, Chris decided to start the company on his own. Since then, the company has grown and services law firms of all sizes in a number of ways. When Keith retired from Womble Bond Dickenson in 2018, he was warmly welcomed to the management team and the rest is "history."
